A basically standalone story about a guy who gets a weird minor superpower, rides it to a low level of fame, and loses it bigly when it all goes wrong. And uhhhh disappears [[Josh Gad]] out of existence.

			Connection to our main story being: It's now almost unheard of for powered people to make it as actors because it's seen as too much a liability.}}

A stretch to think an entire generation would agree to hide the reality of a planetary migration from the next generation, buuuut that's fiction for you. Also, spaceship design hasn't changed much in a century.

			Overall, satisfying conclusion.}}

	\|thoughts = }}		\|thoughts = OK, this episode finally had the clip I saw some time back, with them discussing how they spoke the same language but the planet seemed different and countries were oldschool. So regarding Astra, at first I was thinking it was a distant future Earth with enough time for things like sea level changes to affect its appearance. Certainly the names of the continents seem like anagrams of Earth continents, so maybe they were just feeling really stupid when naming things. The connection between planets is still unclear. The main crew and Polina remember the same history until the Cuban Missile Crisis. They seem to remember different things after that. The sci-fi part of my brain says alternate universe, but it doesn't feel like the show is going that way. Best guess now--after Polina went to sleep, the wormhole exodus led people to Astra. Then for whatever reason the powers that be changed the story of history to cover up whatever unpleasant truth. This goes along with altering the date system, so what they're calling 2163 would really be... who knows, 2263, 2363 on the old Earth calendar? The main problem with this theory I think is that if there's really been such a huge time gap since Polina went to sleep, the Astra (the ship) should seem extremely oldschool, so I wouldn't have thought someone like Zack trained for modern ships would be able to adapt to it so easily.

			Aaaand the enemy is Charce. Willingly going along with this murder-suicide plan due to... loyalty to the king he's a clone of? This doesn't do anything to help enlighten us on the Seira/Aries situation, either.}}

	\|thoughts = }}		\|thoughts = This is... probably the most laid back start to an MCU story I've seen. You'd think it was just a drama comedy without any real Super stuff going on until the last minute or so, when we learn there's something weird going on with the main character that he doesn't even seem to know.

			Good to see Trevor Slattery, I enjoy him as one of the non-leading characters who can show up in various parts of the MCU.

			So in the show they're doing a movie remake of Wonder Man, an in-universe superhero movie from decades earlier. The interview with the supposedly-acclaimed director rings true enough for that world. Why a man in his position take on such a project? Well, now that they all live in an actual world of superheroes, that totally changes the context of such a movie and it's appropriate that he might try and do something higher-brow with the concept now.}}
